Midlothian city, TX in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Midlothian city is a small city in Texas, with 37,256 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #94 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 35.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Midlothian city earn a median of $122,643 a year, 56.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 90% above the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 6.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Midlothian city is valued at $369,400, 21.8% above the national figure and 106% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,867 a month, 32.8% above the national figure, or roughly $22,404 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 79.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
